Roburt Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Just had word that almost everything is now in place for a live show @ the 100 Club by Rudy Love & Band. It is scheduled to take place on the night of Saturday September 29th. Rudy, his family & John Alexander are truly thrilled about the prospect of a live gig here in the UK. Especially one @ the 100 Club as the venue has links to the Yardbirds (who back in the day cut a cover version of ""Good Morning, School Girl""). Rudy will perform the song (almost certainly) in his live set on the night ... The show will tie in nicely with the Raindance Film Festival, being staged in London at the time & a celebration after-party will most probably take place after the gig has finished. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Roburt Posted August 9, 2018 Author Share Posted August 9, 2018 Anyone here know the provenance of the DEEP SOUL DISCOVERIES series of CD's ... I assume they're boots (tracks not licensed at least) ... I also think they're out of Italy but could be wrong as copies now seem to be up for sale on the net from folk in many different countries.

Roburt Posted August 10, 2018 Author Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Rudy gives us the RIGHT FEELING ... but here it's performed by Gwen Owens & Hot ... .... this version was also cut @ Wishbone Studios in Muscle Shoals ...

Chalky Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Where are the details of the show at the 100 Club? There is northing on the 100 Club site nor can I find out anything online? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Roburt Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) That's because it hasn't been announced publicly yet ... I'm part of the team that has helped organise the event ... it is 99% certain to happen ... Rudy Love, his family & friends are already booked onto UK flights, their film festival screening is organised ... .... . . . . . even the after-show party is just about fully sorted ... ....... so just accept it is happening & wait for the official announcement (& for tickets to go on sale) . I was given permission to post about the show ahead of the official news (by the organisers). I thought people would be pleased to get an advance heads-up. Below is another scene from the film; Rudy on stage with Funkadelic George (Rudy worked a lot with Sly Stone in the mid 70's, but I think Sly was indisposed when the film was being made).

Chalky Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Is it the only show or are others planned? London may be a struggle Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Roburt Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) No trip up north I'm afraid. There was mention made of a live performance to tie in with the film screening but that would be in London too. BUT the team are over in the UK for a few days at the end of September, so if any enterprising promoter wanted to put him on, they should get in touch asap (no air fares to fund, live backing band for him here, full show being rehearsed as we speak; SUFFERING WRATH, GOOD MORNING LITTLE SCHOOL GIRL and more).

Roburt Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 Seems that everything is happening on Saturday 29th September .... the Raindance Film Festival folk (London) will be making their big announcement on the 22nd August. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Roburt Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 (edited) Everything seems to be progressing well in relation to Rudy's upcoming UK visit. The film festival announcement is made in the coming week & the promotion for his live show @ the 100 Club will follow soon after ... seems everything will come together OK for a big day on Saturday 29th September ...

Roburt Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) John Alexander (the film maker) has expressed a strong interest in getting the documentary about Rudy Love (80 minutes duration) screened at a UK soul weekender & at a couple of Euro based soul weekenders. He can supply a copy of it in DVD format or via an online link or as a mp4 file. If anyone out there would be interested in this proposal PM me or drop an e-mail direct to John ... johnalexander@post.harvard.edu Old dvd's put together by Rudy in the past ...

Roburt Posted August 28, 2018 Author Share Posted August 28, 2018 Rudy Love & his band will be in the UK (& available for live show bookings) between Wednesday 26th September and Tuesday 2nd October (except Sat 29th Sept of course). Any venue within easy travel distance of London would be considered. I know it's pretty short notice but the maker of Rudy's film, John Alexander, will be in the UK on September 5th. So he will be easily contactable to sort out all the details. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Is it a free stream? or is it nearly £9? I'd want the video for that tbh. What channel, Vimeo? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
